Biden Is DOOMED! This is the END of His Presidency!!!

Well, it looks like things are beginning to finally close in on Joe Biden! We’re going to see the latest tranche of unauthorized classified documents found in his home, we’re going to see the escalating calls for his resignation, and make sure to stick with me to the very end of this video when we’ll find out how Biden’s legal defense is crumbling as we speak, leaving no place for him to hide; you are NOT going to want to miss this!

Watch Now

T. Belman. Welcome to Israel. Whenever there is a flare up in Arab violence, the US demands that Israel stop provoking them. When Sen Mitchel went to Israel in 2,000 to report of the Arab violence, he recommended that Israel freeze settlement construction which it was legally allowed to do. Amb Nides recently said his job is to “restore calm”. That is the value the US embraces at home and abroad unless the violence suits their purpose as in Ukraine.

Is the world progressing, as the Progressives claim, or is it in fact regressing?

More and more evidence suggests the latter. In fact, in certain respects, the West is increasingly becoming like the quintessential Third World — namely, the Islamic world.

One can cite several examples — the West’s eagerness to ban any Christian symbol, lest it offend, or its ban on free speech, lest that too offend (or “blasphemes” against Muslim sensibilities) — but an unexpected one recently surfaced.

T. Belman. Frager fails to mention that this illegal construction is financed by the EU. Nor does he mention the other problem, namely that the Arabs are taking advantage of Israel law (going back to Ottaman law) that provides that by cultivating the land you get ownership of the land.

Unless, Israel wakes up in time, much of Israel will have been snatched from right under their eyes.

By Joseph Frager, MD, INN

The new Netanyahu government could not have been elected too soon to thwart the illegal land grab by the Arabs in Judea and Samaria. The new coalition has made this thankfully a priority. It’s about time.

The government is to be commended for demolishing illegal Arab outposts in Wadi Rahhal and Irtas in the Gush Etzion Area recently. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Illegal Arab construction has been going on for years in Jerusalem and Area C of Judea and Samaria. Area C was designated in the 1993 Oslo Accords as solely the land of Israel. The Arabs have plenty of land to build legal structures in Area A and B.

T. Belman.  I met with Kuperwasser a few months ago to explain the Jordan Option to him. I have known him for years. I also met with Amir Avivi for the same purpose.

They are totally supportive of the Jordan Option.

The Palestinian entity has been involved in terrorism since it was established, while Israel continues to view it as a force for stability.

By  Yossi Kuperwasser and Or Yissachar, ISDF   20.1.23

Recent steps taken by the new Israeli government in retaliation for the Palestinian Authority’s appeal to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) represent the first indication that a much-needed change is underway.

Traditionally, Israeli governments avoided confronting the PA over its breaches of the Oslo Accords, such as supporting terrorism, ongoing incitement, and unilateral activities in international fora.

Levin, Netanyahu said to seek further changes that would redefine High Court-Knesset balance of power, limit Israelis’ right to petition against government actions

The new government’s far-reaching plan to overhaul the judiciary is reportedly just the first step out of four, with additional plans including splitting the attorney general’s role, limiting the ability to petition against government actions, and major changes to the quasi-constitutional Basic Laws to reshape the balance of power between the Knesset and the High Court of Justice.

A group of Likud MKs visited an illegal Bedouin encampment near Jerusalem Monday morning, as some members of the coalition government called for the encampment’s evacuation.

Likud lawmakers joined activists from the Regavim watchdog group, which monitors illegal construction in the Arab sector, for a first-hand look at Khan al-Ahmar, a Bedouin encampment built on Israeli land next to the town of Mishor Adumim, east of Jerusalem.

The publication of the new data coincided with Christmas and showed roughly 185,000 Christians live in Israel and make up 1.9 percent of the country’s population.

Former US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo tells Israel National News that the controversy that has erupted this week stemming from a passage in his new book about Nikki Haley plotting to be named Trump’s vice president while she was serving as the administration’s UN ambassador reveals a great deal about the way Washington D.C. functions.

_{The WSJ editorial board has a more positive take on the resilience and future of the Jewish state than the protesters in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.}

(JNS) Kudos to The Wall Street Journal for defending the new Israeli government’s judicial-reform plan. It takes guts for a news outlet to go against the grain of fashionable politics, particularly when the decibel level of the loud minority is so high.

Anyone arguing that it’s easy for the paper’s editorial board to take a stand that’s unpopular in far-away elite circles ought to reconsider. Though it’s true that the protesters in the streets of Tel Aviv and Jerusalem who’ve been spending the past three Saturday nights living it up by warning against the death of democracy are nowhere near WSJ headquarters in New York City, their voices have been resonating well beyond the borders of the Jewish state.

Political official says PM giving ‘extremists’ free rein to entice opposition leaders to join govt. to serve as a counterbalance.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is seeking to bring either the Yesh Atid or National Unity parties into his government, a senior political official told Ynet.

According to the official, Netanyahu has not reined in the ‘extremists’ in his government in order to create the condition for Yair Lapid or Benny Gantz to join the government in the next few months to serve as a counterbalance to the far right.

T. Belman. I find the tone of this article very irritating. Its all about what American expects and Israel’s need to kiss their ass. Nides said;

“But there’s only so much time in the day, so it would be enormously helpful if we don’t have to be dealing every day with things that we fundamentally oppose, because that just distracts us from the bigger issues that we’re trying to achieve,” .

To the contrary, Israel should overwhelm the US with things it opposes. Israel must make it clear that Israel is in charge, not the US.

“My goal here is to keep calm.”

“keeping calm” is no longer the operative phrase. Israel’s goal is to reclaim its rights.
